Chapter 3: Installing the Hardware Infrastructure Chapter Overview This chapter describes how to install the DecisioNet hardware infrastructure. This includes the following components: • CBSs • CBS power supplies • Data and power cables • Transmit and receive antennas For information about ordering these parts, refer to Appendix A. After the DecisioNet hardware is installed, the DecisioNet software must be configured and the site must be RF certified. For configuration information, refer to "Chapter 6: Configuring the DecisioNet System Environment" in this guide and the "Certify RF Infrastructure" section of the DecisioNet Implementation Guide (B005-0000-1250). 3-2 Chapter 3: Installing the Hardware Infrastructure Installation Recommendations • The most efficient way to install the DecisioNet hardware infrastructure is in one pass through the store. Install the CBSs, antennas, power cables, and data cables all at the same time • Label all cables and document labeling for future reference. • Neatness makes servicing the system much easier. • Allow slack in cables, especially in receive antenna cables. • Test the system as it is being installed. Refer to Chapter 7, "Testing and Troubleshooting," for information on testing. • Provide AC power that meets NCR requirements for the power supplies. • Test wiring as it is installed. Some installation problems are extremely difficult to diagnose later. • DecisioNet Release 3.0 requires the RF infrastructure to be connected to the site's DecisioNet Software Controller to test the infrastructure. Refer to the following for information on testing the infrastructure and site certification: • DecisioNet Implementation Guide (B005-0000-1250) • DecisioNet RF Certification Utility Guide • Certification/Re-Certification Site Survey Policy (497-0410343) Chapter 3: Installing the Hardware Infrastructure 3-3 General Layout Instructions • The cable length between any two devices (hub to CBS or CBS to CBS) cannot exceed 100 m (328 ft.). • The maximum number of Ethernet levels beyond the primary CBS is three (3). • The maximum total cable length is as follows: Cable Maximum Cable Length Ethernet (primary CBS to last CBS in chain) 300 m (984 ft.) Power supply to last CBS in the chain 162 m (532 ft.) • Use only NCR authorized communication cable. • Communication cables must be secure and locked into their connectors. • The maximum number of CBSs per store is 40 except for model 7730-1013-9090 (Netherlands) which has a maximum of 12 CBSs per store. • If the communication cable is routed through an elevator shaft, it must be in a conduit and the conduit must be connected to the building ground. • The minimum distance between a communication cable and a fluorescent, neon, or incandescent light is 30 cm (12 in.). Note: The minimum distance from red blown neon-type signs is 9.1 m (30 ft.). See the “Neon Signs” section in Chapter 2 of the DecisioNet Implementation Guide for information. • All communication cable connections must be protected from electrical and mechanical deterioration. The deterioration of communication cable connections due to corrosion or electrolysis, especially in a humid or corrosive atmosphere, may result in electrical noise. 3-4 Chapter 3: Installing the Hardware Infrastructure • The minimum distances between a communication cable and electrical equipment/associated power cables are as follows: Maximum Rated Circuit Power Unshielded Power Cables Shielded Power Cables 1 kVA 2 kVA 5 kVA Over 5 kVA 30.5 cm (14 in.) 45.7 cm (18 in.) 60.9 cm (24 in.) 152.4 cm (60 in.) 2.54 cm (1 in.) 5.08 cm (2 in.) 15.24 cm (6 in.) 30.48 cm (12 in.) • All interconnecting wiring between the Ethernet hub, CBSs, and power supplies is low voltage wiring. This wiring must conform to all local and national electrical codes for the routing of commercial signal wire. • Do not route communication cables outside the building.

The last 6 hexadecimal characters of the MAC address are used to specify the hostname for each CBS in the CBS Manager section of the DecisioNet CBS Configuration file (DNCBSCONFIG.XML). The hostname format is NCRDNETXXXXXX where XXXXXX is the 6 characters from the MAC address. When you complete the RF infrastructure installation, you need to assign IP addresses and verify CBS communications. Refer to "CBS Hardware Configuration" section at the end of this chapter for details about assigning CBS addresses in your Ethernet network. How to enter the CBS configuration information in the CBS Configuration File is described in the “Setting the CBS IP Address” section of Chapter 6, Configuring the DecisioNet System Environment. 3-16 Chapter 3: Installing the Hardware Infrastructure CBS Installation Install the CBSs at the same time you install the power cables, data cables, and antennas. The most efficient way to install the DecisioNet hardware is in one pass through the store. The following table and illustration show the CBS and associated hardware. Item Quantity Description CBS CBS mounting bracket Universal beam clamp Lock washer Screw (¼ -20 x ¼ Phillips head) Power connector (installed on CBS ) 18879 The CBS can be mounted in any position. The mounting bracket and universal beam clamps permit a wide variety of installations. Position the CBS for easy LED and connector access. The following example illustrations show a CBS mounted to a roof truss. Chapter 3: Installing the Hardware Infrastructure 3-17 Receive Transmit 18829 Warning: The CBS must be mounted securely and installed in accordance with local building codes. The mounting surface must be able to withstand a minimum weight of 2.26 kg (5 lbs.). Caution: DO NOT install a CBS by placing it on a ceiling tile. The following steps describe a typical installation in which a CBS is mounted to a roof truss as shown in the previous illustration. 1. Use the screws and lock washers to secure the clamps to the mounting bracket. Caution: Vibrations could loosen the screws holding the mounting bracket to the clamps. It is extremely important to place the lock washers on the screws before installing the screws into the clamps. 2. Position the clamps on the roof truss and tighten the clamp screws. 3. Install the CBS into the mounting bracket. Caution: To prevent damage to the transmitter, the transmit antenna must be connected to the CBS before power is applied to the CBS. 3-18 Chapter 3: Installing the Hardware Infrastructure Preferred CBS Mounting Solution 2.

Cut a length of data cable that is long enough to reach from one CBS to the next CBS. 2. On each end of the data cable, install the wires into an RJ45 connector as shown in the previous illustration and then crimp the connector onto the cable. 3. Plug the RJ45 connector into data connector 1, 2 or 3 and into the Uplink data connector of the next CBS. 4. Repeat steps 1 – 3 until all secondary CBSs are linked by a data cable. Chapter 3: Installing the Hardware Infrastructure 3-21 Connecting Power Supply Cables Refer to the illustrations in the “CBS Power Supply Cable Connections” section. Power supply cable routing is store dependent. The power connector provides flexibility to connect additional CBSs in series from one CBS to another or in parallel from a CBS to three other CBSs. Connecting CBS Power Supplies to AC Power Place the CBS power supplies with the host computer system, if possible. Plug all power supplies into a common power strip so that you can power them on and off at the same time for reset purposes. In some cases, cable length restrictions may prevent you from installing all power supplies in the same location. In this case, you need to install a separately switched AC main circuit so that you can still control the power supplies at the same time. If local electrical codes or special circumstances require you to install more than one switched AC main circuit for the power supplies, all the main circuit switches should be in the same easily accessible location. Do not install the CBS power supply in the ceiling. 1. Have an electrician install new AC receptacles if needed. 2. Do not plug the CBS power supply into an AC receptacle until steps 1 – 6 in the next section are complete and the transmit antenna is connected to the CBS. Connecting CBS Power Supplies to CBSs Each CBS power supply can power up to five CBSs as shown previously in the store configuration illustration. The wiring is the same for each group of up to five CBSs. Follow these steps to connect a CBS power supply to each group of up to five CBSs: 1. Cut a length of power cable that is long enough to reach from the power supply to a CBS. 3-22 Chapter 3: Installing the Hardware Infrastructure 2. Splice the power cable wires to the pigtail supplied with the power supply (black to black and red to white) and then install the provided crimp connectors over the splices. White Red Black Black White Black Note: Colors shown are for recommended Belden cables. Your wire colors may be different. 18878 3. Plug the connector into the power supply. 4. On the CBS, unplug the power connector. 5. Install the power cable wires into the connector (white into pin 1, 3, 5 or 7 [24 V] and black into pin 2, 4, 6 or 8 [Ground]). Use pins in pairs: 1-2, 3-4, 5-6, 7-8 for each power cable connection at the CBS. 6. Plug the connector back into the CBS. 7. Insert the AC power cable into the power supply's AC receptacle. 8. Connect the AC plug to the AC power source. Caution: To prevent damage to the transmitter, the transmit antenna must be connected to the CBS before applying power to the CBS. Chapter 3: Installing the Hardware Infrastructure 3-23 CBS Antennas Two types of antennas are available for the CBS: • Transmit • Receive The transmit and receive antennas look similar, but have the following differences: • The transmit antenna has a screw-on reverse polarity SMA connector and uses cable 1424-C424-0018 to connect to the CBS. The other end of this cable has a reverse polarity TNC connector. • The receive antenna has a BNC connector and uses cable 1424-C057-0180 to connect to the CBS. This cable has two BNC connectors. Note: With 100 mW CBSs, a 15 m (49 ft.) receive antenna cable 1416-C520-0150 must be used instead of the usual 18 m (59 ft.) receive antenna cable. Consider the following when installing antennas: • Install the antennas at the same time you are installing the CBSs. • On a dropped ceiling, mount the antennas from the T-bars. In an open ceiling, hang the antennas from the roof trusses. • When mounting the antenna, face the front of the antenna (the side opposite the cable connector) towards the ESLs, with as few obstructions between it and the ESLs as possible. 3-24 Chapter 3: Installing the Hardware Infrastructure Installing CBS Antennas The transmit antenna and receive antenna kits include the same mounting hardware. The installation procedures for the transmit and receive antennas are the same. Mounting an Antenna on a T-bar Note: Maintain a minimum distance of 9.2 m (30 ft.) between a CBS's transmit and receive antennas. To install an antenna on a dropped ceiling's T-bar: 1. At the desired location, install a T-bar hanger on the T-bar. 2. Screw the antenna onto the T-bar hanger. 3. Route the antenna cable through a 13 mm (1/2 in.) hole in the ceiling tile or route it between the T-bar and the edge of the ceiling tile. Note: Do not allow debris from the ceiling tile to fall into the antenna connector. 4. Install the cable onto the antenna connector. 5. Connect the other end of the antenna cable to the CBS. 6. Use cable ties to secure the antenna cable. Chapter 3: Installing the Hardware Infrastructure 17203 3-25 3-26 Chapter 3: Installing the Hardware Infrastructure Securing an Antenna to a Wall Note: Maintain a minimum distance of 9.2 m (30 ft.) between a CBS's transmit and receive antennas. To install an antenna on a wall (or other flat object): 1. Place the lock washer on the bolt, put the bolt through the appropriate hole in the bracket and screw the bolt into the antenna. 2. Screw the bracket into the wall. 3. Connect the antenna cable to the antenna. 4. Connect the antenna cable to the CBS. 5.

To hang an antenna from a roof truss (or other object) refer to the illustration on the following page and these instructions: 1. Screw the threaded rod into the antenna. 2. Connect the antenna cable to the antenna. 3. Secure the antenna cable to the threaded rod using three equally spaced cable ties. 4. In the desired location, hold the antenna cable against a roof truss and lower the antenna to the desired height. 5. Use a cable tie to hang the antenna cable from the roof truss. Caution: Antenna cables must be secured to a roof truss as shown in the following illustration. Do not allow an antenna to hang from a CBS's connector as the connector cannot withstand the weight of the threaded rod, cable, and antenna. 6. Connect the antenna cable to the CBS. 7. Use cable ties to secure the antenna cable. Caution: This device is required to comply with FCC RF exposure requirements for mobile transmitting devices. A separation of 20 cm (8 inches) or more must be maintained between the antenna and all persons during device operation to satisfy RF exposure compliance. 3-28 Chapter 3: Installing the Hardware Infrastructure 17202 Chapter 3: Installing the Hardware Infrastructure 3-29 CBS Hardware Configuration After all RF infrastructure components have been installed and the Ethernet cabling and power supply cabling has been circuit tested for continuity, the system can be powered-up to establish the connection between an Ethernet network and the DecisioNet CBS units.
